DIG & Super Charged (DIG-S)
DIG (DIRECT-INJECTION-GASOLINE)
Direct Injection Gasoline (Turbo engine). Engine system where petrol or diesel is injected directly into the engine cylinder instead of into a pre-combustion chamber or manifold.
Direct injection gives more efficient combustion, with better fuel consumption and lower emissions.
SUPERCHARGED
A supercharger is an air compressor attached to a car's engine. It physically forces more oxygen into the combustion chambers, allowing the engine to burn more fuel and generate significantly more horsepower and torque than it would on its own
Supercharger: Powered directly by the engine via a mechanical belt. It provides immediate power but consumes a small amount of the engine's power to operate,
→ Bascially, pushes air into the engine at a higher rate than the engine itself would be able to on its own, allowing the engine to burn more fuel and generate a massive increase in horsepower and torque.
How?
Instead of relying on the engine to naturally pull in air, the supercharger acts like an air pump driven directly by the engine's crankshaft (usually via a belt)
Air + Fuel = Power: By packing the cylinders with compressed air, the car's computer can inject more fuel to create a bigger, more powerful explosion during every engine cycle
Instant Response: Because it is directly mechanically linked to the engine, it delivers a burst of power the moment you press the gas pedal, with no "lag".
